    ok so i know the title sounds dumb, but let me explain myself. i have my 1530 plugged into my 32 inch tv via a HDMI wire so that i can use the tv as my monitor and speakers. the only problem with this is that when i close the lid on my computer my internet connection becomes noticeably slower. is this a common phenomenon or do i hsve to keep the lid open inorder to get a good connection?
